Doubt not that I love you

DOUBT NOT THAT I LOVE YOU II.

Darling, I know that I can't be absolutely perfect; for as a mortal, I have depravities in me,
Which will always and constantly antagonize me in trying to be the best that I want to be.
But with all of my human shortcomings and flaws, my love for you is surer than the blue,
And even if you'd harbour some doubts; please darling, doubt not that I do really love you.

It might be somewhat difficult to make you assured; for assurance is not so easy to give;
For we mortals are not sure of anything else save the selfsame moment in which we live.
Yet, with all my inability to completely convince you, I know that my feelings are very true;
And never would I debar you from having doubts; but darling, doubt not that I do love you.

Day by day, with words that stem from the depth of my heart do I show you how I do feel;
For if love at all exists here below, I am totally sure that the one I have for you is very real.
To make you see how I cherish you, I'm bereft of ideas and I really don't know what to do,
Maybe that's why your heart stores some doubts; but please, doubt not that I do love you.

I will never stop to tell you in patience how that my heart longs for you to be my only one;
For if you were myself, you will definitely fall for you; for your type of beauty is rarely born.
I'd not get tired of telling you everyday till you are able to comprehend and see it through,
And though you have some doubts at this moment; please, doubt not that I truly love you.

You really are very beautiful, by the moon and stars above do I swear this and I do not lie,
I haven't met or seen anyone like you before; your beauty amuses me, it is new to my eye.
Princess, not for the gratification of all my lustful fiery desires do I your tender heart woo;
For I know you have such thoughts which breed doubts; please, doubt not that I love you.

I cherish the sight of you; every time I catch a glimpse of you, my joy is filled to the brim,
For everything about you appeals and speaks to me; you really are the angel in my dream.
I'd break all of my rigid walls just to gain your love and I am in for this even if it is a taboo;
Yet, while you think about it having some doubts; please darling, doubt not that I love you.
